The present disclosure provides an electronic cigarette 1000.

Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 5, the electronic cigarette 1000 of the present disclosure comprises an atomizer 100 and a battery assembly 200. The battery assembly 200 is provided with a main control board 220 electrically connected with the built-in power supply 210. The atomizer 100 comprises a top cover 10, a base 30, an atomizing assembly 50, and a light-transmitting sleeve 70 connecting the top cover 10 and the base 30. The atomizing assembly 50 is received in the light-transmitting sleeve 70 and forms an oil storing chamber 60 with the light-transmitting sleeve 70. The atomizing assembly 50 is provided with an atomizing chamber, and the atomizing chamber is provided with at least one oil guiding port 52 communicated with the oil storing chamber 60 at an end far from the top cover 10.

The top cover 10 comprises a cover body 11, a mouthpiece 12 and an aerosol outlet pipe 13. The cover body 11 is provided with an oil injecting hole 1111 communicated with the oil storing chamber 60 and an air inlet chamber 1112 communicated with the atomizing chamber. The aerosol outlet pipe 13 is at least partially received in the air inlet chamber 1112, and both ends of the aerosol outlet pipe 13 are communicated with the mouthpiece 12 and the atomizing chamber, respectively. The outside air sequentially passes through the air inlet chamber 1112, the atomizing chamber, and the aerosol outlet pipe 13, and finally is discharged from the mouthpiece 12.

The base 30 comprises a base body 31, an electrode assembly 32, and a light-emitting assembly 33 which illuminates the oil storing chamber 60. The base body 31 is fixedly installed on the battery assembly 200. The electrode assembly 32 electrically conducts the atomizing assembly 50 and the main control board 220. The light-emitting assembly 33 is fixedly installed on the base body 31, and is electrically connected with the main control board 220.

For the electronic cigarette of the technical solution of the present disclosure, the top cover 10 is provided with a mouthpiece 12 of the oil injecting hole 1111 and a aerosol outlet pipe 13 communicated with the mouthpiece 12, the oil injecting hole 1111 is communicated with the oil storing chamber 60, and the aerosol outlet pipe 13 is communicated with the atomizing assembly 50. Simultaneously, the atomizing assembly 50 is provided with an oil guiding port 52 so that the atomizing chamber is communicated with the oil storing chamber 60, so that tobacco tar enters the oil storing chamber 60 from the oil injecting hole 1111 provided on the top cover 10, and then penetrates into the atomizing chamber from the oil guiding port 52 at the bottom. The outside air enters the atomizing chamber through the air inlet chamber 1112 of the top cover 10. The mixed atomized aerosol gas flows out through the mouthpiece 12 for the user to suck, so that it is not easy for tobacco tar in the oil storing chamber 60 to be leaked from the air inlet chamber 1112 provided on the top cover 10 of the electronic cigarette 1000, thereby improving the air tightness of tobacco tar. At the same time, the aerosol outlet pipe 13 partially is received in the air inlet chamber 1112. When the user sucks, the external cold air comes into contact with the aerosol outlet pipe 13 received in the air inlet chamber 1112 to be preheated first after entering through the air inlet chamber 1112, then flows through the atomizing chamber to atomize the tobacco tar to form hot air aerosol, and then is discharged through the aerosol outlet pipe 13. At this time, when flowing through the aerosol outlet pipe 13 received inside the air inlet chamber 1112, the hot air aerosol encounters with the cold air to exchange heat so as to cool down, effectively avoiding the phenomenon that the hot air causes the mouthpiece 12 to be hot and get mouth scalded. Further, according to the present disclosure, a light-emitting assembly 33 is provided at the base body 31, and the oil storing chamber 60 is illuminated, so that the user may generate various types of lighting effects during use, effectively improving the user experience.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 5, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, the cover 11 comprises a fixed cover 111 and a movable cover 112. The oil injecting hole 1111 and the air inlet chamber 1112 are provided on the fixed cover 111. The movable cover 112 is provided with a receiving hole for receiving the mouthpiece 12. The movable cover 112 is rotatably installed on the fixed cover 111 and opens or closes the oil injecting hole 1111 when the fixed cover 111 rotates. The aerosol outlet pipe 13 is communicated with the mouthpiece 12 when the movable cover 112 covers the oil injecting hole 1111. Here, in this embodiment, the mouthpiece 12 is partially received in the receiving hole, and is provided with a thread to be fixedly connected with the movable cover 112, so that the user can conveniently replace the mouthpiece 12, and at the same time, the phenomenon that the mouthpiece 12 falls off and is lost can be effectively avoided. Further, the movable cover 112 and the fixed cover 111 are connected by a rotating pin. One end of the rotating pin can be fixedly connected with the fixed cover 111 by means of interference fit, and the other end is connected with the movable cover 112 in a clearance fit, so that the movable cover 112 is rotatable, and the connecting column can protrude from the movable cover 112. The part of the rotating pin protruding from the movable cover 112 can be provided with a stopper or an adjusting nut, so that the movable cover 112 is not easily separated from the fixed cover 111. The adjusting nut is provided, which can also facilitate the user to adjust the degree of tightness when the movable cover 112 rotates.

Further, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 4, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, a sealing gasket 113 is further provided between the fixed cover 111 and the movable cover 112. The fixed cover 111 is provided with a receiving groove 1113 for receiving the sealing gasket 113. The oil injecting hole 1111 is provided in the receiving groove 1113. The sealing gasket 113 is provided with an opening (not labeled) corresponding to the oil injecting hole 1111. The movable cover 112 abuts against the sealing gasket 113 when covering the oil injecting hole 1111. Here, in this embodiment, the sealing gasket 113 is made of an elastic rubber material. An acting force is mutually kept between the sealing cover and the upper cover by the elastic action of the sealing gasket 113. After the sealing cover abuts against the upper cover, it is not easy to loosen. At the same time, the sealing gasket 113 is provided with a rib around the oil injecting hole 1111 toward a surface of the movable cover 112. In this way, when the movable cover 112 covers the receiving groove 1113, the movable cover 112 and the rib can closely abut against the sealing gasket 113 by means of interference fit so that the oil injecting hole 1111 is tightly sealed. And/or one of the fixed cover 111 and the movable cover 112 is provided with a connecting neck 1122, and the other thereof is provided with a connecting buckle 1114. The movable cover 112 is locked to the fixed cover 111 and covers the oil injecting hole 1111 when the connecting buckle 1114 and the connecting neck 1122 are buckled. Here, in this embodiment, when the movable cover 112 is buckled to the fixed cover 111 by means of a buckle, looseness is less likely to occur.

Further, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, the top cover 10 further comprises an adjusting ring 14, the adjusting ring 14 is rotatably sleeved on the outer periphery of the fixed cover 111, and the side wall of the adjusting ring 14 is provided with an adjusting hole 141 corresponding to the air inlet chamber 1112. Here, the adjusting ring 14 can be sleeved on the fixed cover 111 by a structure such as a thread or a gap, and a plurality of adjusting holes 141 can be simultaneously opened at the side thereof. When the adjusting ring 14 is rotated and moved on the outer periphery of the fixed cover 111, the adjusting hole 141 and the air inlet chamber 1112 achieve a conduction area difference, and air enters through the part overlapped by the conduction area difference to adjust the size of the intake air. Since the air amount entering directly affects the volatilization effect of tobacco tar, the evaporating speed of tobacco tar can be controlled by rotating the adjusting hole 141 to meet the experience of different users.

Further, as shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 3 or FIG. 4, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, the outer periphery of the movable cover 112 is provided with a plurality of protrusions arranged at intervals. Here, in this embodiment, the outer periphery of the movable cover 112 is provided with a plurality of protrusions arranged at intervals. When the user rotates the movable cover 112, the frictional force is effectively enhanced to avoid the occurrence of the slip phenomenon, which is convenient for the user to perform the manipulation. Further to this, and/or the outer periphery of the adjusting ring 14 is provided with a plurality of protrusions 142 arranged at intervals. Here, in this embodiment, the outer periphery of the adjusting ring 14 is provided with a plurality of protrusions 142 arranged at intervals. When the user rotates the adjusting ring 14, the frictional force is effectively enhanced to avoid the occurrence of the slip phenomenon, which is convenient for the user to perform the manipulation.

It is to be understood that, in actual application, in order to enhance the friction between the movable cover 112 or the adjusting ring 14 and the human body, it is not limited to the above manner in which a plurality of protrusions 142 or bumps are provided. For example, the manner of increasing the frictional force in which the outer periphery of the movable cover 112 and the adjusting ring 14 is provided with irregular lines may also be used. Both manners fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

Here, in this embodiment, one end of the connecting ring 15 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the chamber wall of the air inlet chamber 1112, and the other end is connected with the atomizing assembly 50 through a thread. At the same time, the base 30 is in a threaded connection with the atomizing assembly 50 so that it is easy to disassemble or assemble the atomizing assembly 50. The gas atomized by the tobacco tar in the atomizing chamber passes through the aerosol outlet pipe 13 of the air inlet chamber 1112 and reaches the mouthpiece 12. The user sucks aerosol through the mouthpiece 12. The outside air enters the atomizing chamber after entering the air inlet chamber 1112 through the adjusting hole 141 so that the gas atomized in the atomizing chamber is not easily volatilized from the air inlet chamber 1112, thereby improving the usage rate and the use effect of tobacco tar. Moreover, air may be temporarily stored through the air inlet chamber 1112 to ensure that tobacco tar is normally volatilized.
